Theme Customizations

While I’ve been doing custom themes for people here and there, I haven’t officially “opened up shop” again for them, so I figured I’d mention it. As some of you know I stopped taking requests for a while but now it’s back open.

Customizing already made themes – If you bought/downloaded a theme of mine and would like it further customized, contact me with details and I’ll let you know if I can do them. All I require is a donation of however much you choose. So whether you think the theme is worth 3 bucks, or 30 (we can dream can’t we), it’s all good.

Creating a custom theme from scratch – If you have a theme idea in mind and would like for me to make it, send me some info and we can work something out. Generally I can do most things except for .svg coding (hidden docks, sliding docks, etc.). Price is negotiable, depending on amount of customization and time to complete.

send any requests/inquiries to ninjathemes.net at gmail dot com.

Happy New Year

Just wanted to say thanks to all of you that have supported Ninja Themes this past year, I’m very grateful. More themes will be rolled out in 2010, more concepts, and more awesomeness to rock on your BB. Stay tuned.

As a gift, here’s a couple of themes I threw together for the 9700 (and 9600, ffs people)… Nothing special, just some modified stock themes with 7 icons on the dock and a weather icon stuck in it somewhere. One is regular, the other is ass backwards.

minor setbacks.

so, I’ve been working on my latest themes, Linear colors, and I’ve had to rebuild each version because of a banner error. well, I’m tired of doing that. so, if you have a 5.0 os and your theme has black/white lines in the list banners, that’s your fault for having a beta os, not mine. I don’t know how to fix it, so until RIM/Plazmic stops screwing around, we’ll have to work with what we got. given not all themes do this, just some.

look for a Linear Colors release this coming week.

ninja pwns your interwebs

I’m sure most of  you know my twitter @ninja_says, which was originally intended to tweet theme updates but has since turned into … something different. basically my outlet for BSing, so I thought I’d make a real theme dev twitter. to stay on top of the latest Ninja Themes news/releases/updates, follow @ninjathemes on the twitters.

Also, I pwned facebook a little, so if you have facebook you’re welcome to add Ninja Themes here:  http://www.facebook.com/ninjathemes

friend me hard, friend me good. although I probably won’t ever update it.

New Linear Colours – A Preview

I was looking at my Linear theme, and was thinking why limit myself to purple? lots of people have asked if I’m going to make other colours, so I thought about it and these are what I came up with. 8900/Tour versions are in the testing stage, with the Bold to come in a while. I will release all at the same time, though. so be on the lookout.

Ninja Themes donations / thanks

Any donations towards themes sent to me (see link to the right, the paypal donations link) will go to the SPCA. The SPCA is a great organization dedicated to helping animals in need. they operate all over the world and have done a lot of good for animals.

The reason I am not going to be selfish with the money like other themers (not calling anyone out just simply stating a fact, people can do whatever they want with their money but I’m going to put it to good use) is because I have more compassion for animals than I do anything/anyone else. And I want to help them as much as I can.

Every donation counts, even if it’s a few bucks. If for some reason you feel that you shouldn’t donate directly to me, please donate directly to the SPCA. You can donate here: SPCA International | donate.

As an incentive for donations, I will be providing services for free. If you would like anything changed or customized on any of my themes, I will do it for you. Want different wallpaper? done. Different fonts? done. Different layout and colors? done and done. Anything you want. If you donate directly to the SPCA please donate in my honour so I will receive a notification as proof of this, so I can readily help you with any customization you would like. My email for this is in the donate link, at the top when you click.

I would like to thank the few that have donated so far, you have definitely done a great thing here.

Thanks to everyone who has given me input and feedback into making these themes better and more unique.

Zelda 8-Bit theme featured on Crackberry

wow, just noticed this a short while ago. on Crackberry.com’s BlackBerry App Roundup for April 24th, my Zelda 8-bit theme got a mention. I thought that was pretty sweet. I had toyed around with the idea of making the theme for other models, but with all the stuff I have going on it went on the backburner. I didn’t know people actually wanted this :P so, I’ve decided to start on it soon. soon as in within a couple weeks, lots to get done before then. keep checking back and it will rear its 8-bit head one of these days.
